Indeed. WIllie is the worry for a lot of EI staff. He was generally loathed in his time as Captain, middle mngr and CEO.
The smear never goes out of fashion in DUB it seems. A favourite tactic of one particular strategist.
I wouldn't pretend to speak for lots of people but I have never heard of anyone loathing him as a captain and not too many as a manager either. Certainly the pilots hated him for the lockout, but at least that was a time when the pilots properly stood up for themselves. Now it is all bluster, ballots and secret back-room deals.
Maybe Willie will bring genuine unity back.
